Multiple copies of emails

Sometimes when sending an email to friends they receive three or four copies of it. I am only sending it once.
This doesn't happen all of the time and it isn't always to the same person.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Thanks

Re: Multiple copies of emails

Sorry Sharyn,
I've not experienced this problem and haven't run across anybody else in this newsgroup who has reported anything similar.
When you look in your sent items folder, do you have multiple copies of the email sitting there or just the one?

Re: Multiple copies of emails

Just the one but today I am finding that some of my emails I am sending aren't showing up in the sent file. They seem to be going to the recipients though. Could this be a virus of some kind?

Which Anti Virus program are you using to scan incoming and outgoing emails. Try and disable the AV email integration and see if this issue continues

Re: Multiple copies of emails

I am using AVG 7.5 Anti-Malware and the email scanning is not running.

Re: Multiple copies of emails

If you have multiple accounts set up, make sure you check that accounts sent folder. It auto filters them by account and I've had problems finding more than one forgetting which account I used to send it from :P

Is size a factor? Do you have the "break apart" option set for that server
(in Advanced tab)? Then get a clearer description of your friend's symptom.
It could be that they are receiving a large E-mail in pieces and just aren't aware
of the the Recombine Attachments... command (if in WLM; Combine and Decode
command, if in OE). BTW some servers do the combining automatically which
may be why not all receivers might report the problem symptom from receiving
the same message.

Re: Multiple copies of emails

Size isn't a factor at all. This doesn't happen with every email I send but
it does happen to enough that people are beginning to think I am losing my
mind.
Sometimes the recipient will get an email several times and yet the next
time I send one it doesn't happen.
Thanks for your reply.

Re: Multiple copies of emails

I haven't used AVG so don't know of the interactions between that and any
programs.
If you have the email scanning turned off then that should suffice but I'd
try turning off the Firewall completely (just for the duration of composing
and sending an email) then turn it back on again afterwards and see if this
has effect on WLM.
After reading the other comments in this thread, I'm beginning to think that
it's maybe something to do with your particular installation rather than
anything else however.
Do you have another machine you can try this on and see if you get the same
results on that machine?
